Re: MacBook Pro wifi speeds

The top speed for N is dependent on how many antennas the device and router have. MBPs have 3 if I remember correctly which would equal 450mbps.

My late-2012 13" MPB connects at 450 to my router.

Mine is connecting at that speed now. My router was ancient. Got a new one. All is well.

If you mean how many antennas the MBP has, I can't recall offhand. But if you go through the tear downs at ifixit it should describe the number of antennas.

If you mean how that affects your connection you can check out »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/802.11n and it should all be in there.
